Active Recycling Co Inc

Update with paper prices below: first of all stay away from active... huge complete rip off period. They do not give pricing over the phone to lure you in and they do not pay more than anyone in the valley like there huge advertising sign says. Important sidenote: NO CASH paid out check only. Big time crooks taking advantage of people that don't know math. They told me they pay 175 a ton for steel which when I asked the price per pound they said around 7 cents. I unloaded 230 pounds of steel and 90 pounds of cardboard. I was given $13.35 which should have been $16.01 Just for the steel. At the 175 per ton payout i was initially told. They pay .20 per lb for clean aluminum and stainless steel right now if anyone calls and gets the same response that i did. You know the rest. Peace! Cardboard is $50 bucks a ton. White office ledger paper is $100 colored paper or magazine or books are also $50 bucks

A terrible place to do business with. You will be horribly treated even before you start the process. Just today I called wanting to find out if they recycled old refrigerators. The girl that answered the phone did NOT want to give me her name and lied saying that "It's company policy that they don't give out names." Which is a complete BS. Besides the fact that they don't pick up your old refrigerator to be recycled of course you'd want to know who it was that you spoke over the phone with if you're ever gonna drive over there to do your recycling in. Do NOT EVER do any business in this place. Right from the start its already a waste of time rude lying receptionist or whoever answers the phone in this phone call it was a girl with a PISSY/OBNOXIOUS attitude. This girl should be fired if that's how she represents the company. OR if this is how all their employees are then the entire business should be completely shut down PERMANENTLY forever. HORRIBLE experience over the phone during my inquiries. NEVER EVER DO any BUSINESS with this company. SHUT THEM DOWN or fire the girl who answers your company phone line. You're in business taking our recycles and making money off them that means you have to be friendly courteous and welcoming over the phone. Otherwise your company should NEVER do any business with ANYONE at all. Your company is a RIP OFF with rude receptionist a girl who sounded like she was running from the law with her obnoxious and illusive behavior over the way she answers the company phone line. You will have HORRIBLE TERRIBLE BLOOD BOILING Experience right from the very beginning dealing with this company! A big NO NO! RUN FOR THE HILLS type of company. Who will just take your business and run off with your money (recycles). This review should actually have a "NO STAR" choice included in its selection(s).

01/31/2020 5 Stars for being a GREAT SCAMM BUSINESS The lady at that helps you is nice.... But they RIP you off with the Prices... I gave them 40 pounds of Iron and only received $1.90 for it....They don’t have the price for iron up there and also you have to speak with the manager if you start asking too much.... And they will Rip you off for your Aluminum
